EIS File No. 82-13 Region III Files 2-PR. 17 1982 anticipated when the procedure was writ en.
Comstock was following the pro-cedure, but was encountering problems. The problem and the procedure would be analyzed at the installation site by the engineers, QA personnel, and the General Electric representative, and if necessary the procedure was modified to solve the problem. The field modified procedure was then used to accomp-lish the actual installation. The field modified procedure was intended to later be issued as a revision of procedure 4.3.28 in anticipation of the installation of the Unit 1 diesel generators.
Gildner concluded the field modification of the procedure was acceptabic and indicated he would include his cbservations in his next inspection report.
Enforcement and Investigation Staff considers this matter closed.
